I now have 2.6 running “normally” on W7-64
Previously everything done in in Layer control took an eternity to respond, especially if it involved raster images. I’d been running 1.8 which worked perfect. Solution was to uninstall and “clean” all QGIS files as follows; 1. Uninstall 1.8 and 2.6 using windows uninstall 2. Clean the Registry of all folders with “qgis” in the title. I used Regedit which comes standard with windows. 3. Delete the .qgis2 and .qgis folders from “users”. In my case these are located at C:\Users\BADAMS 4. Restart machine 5. Load 2.6 6. Problem solved!!! Interestingly when reloading 2.6 it tells me 2.6 is already loaded, so something remained during this process. Didn’t seem to matter. Thanks everyone for your help.

As it’s a new installation I don’t think external plugins are loaded. (Guess that’s why I don’t have the qgis2 folder??? ) Data storage is small SHP files (100 points) and a series of raster images (300kB). Same files that were being used in 1.8.

Try backing up your .qgis2 folder (ie, rename to .qgis2.backup) Then relaunch QGIS 2.6 and test again. What's the data storage format? Are they spatialite, postgis, shapefiles, etc?

Removing files from the Layer control takes an eternity Tried uninstalling both 2.6 and 1.8 and reinstalling only 2.6 but this doesn't seem to have helped. ba -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brett Adams Sent: Tuesday, 25 November 2014 10:09 AM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Qgis-user] 2.6 very slow to render Thanks Alex That made a significant improvement. I can live with that. brett Try disabling/changing multi-threaded rendering. It may not work well on your hardware.
